Anita Grover

Auditory Verbal UK

In her first two years as a CEO, Anita Grover, Chief Executive at Auditory VerbalUK, has transformed the profile, status and influence of this small charity supporting young deaf children. Anita, who is profoundly deaf, has been inspired by her own experience of deafness and lobbies tirelessly to change the landscape of service provision. In 2014, she became the first UK CEO to win the Macquarie David Clarke Social Innovation Fellowship, and has led Auditory VerbalUK to secure the October Club partnership (worth over £500,000) and industry recognition at the Charity Times Awards Charity of the Year (income under £1m).
